專家說明


Mark Knopfler purchased this guitar from the New York String Service in Brooklyn, New York, in January 2006 and kept it for occasional home and studio use. The sunburst Split Sound features in the promotional shoot for Knopfler’s 2007 solo studio album Kill To Get Crimson, seen in the background on the far left of the armchair. Photographed by Fabio Lovino, the resultant publicity shots were used for the album’s liner notes, as well as the 2008 Kill To Get Crimson Tour programme. The shoot was also captured in Tom Bird’s short documentary film that accompanied the CD/DVD album set. See footnote to previous lot.
